Royals Game Update:

We had a great time at the game on Friday, Thank you to our President, Kris Flott, for a great on field interview and to Todd Luther, Treasurer,  for the later interview.   Jasper Payne threw out the first pitch for our organization – great job Jasper!.  A big thanks to the Royals for highlighting us as community organization of the night.  Great to see so many people able to come and have fun together and be a part of our Hands & Voices family!   We look forward to seeing  everyone at the big picnic at Mahoney Park on August 28th!

We will be throwing out the first pitch – Goooo Jasper!   We will be giving a pre-game on-field interview and will take part in an on-air interview with KOIL AM 1180, in the top of the 3rd inning.  And to top off the evening, there will be fireworks following the game!  This is a great way to get our name out in the community, enjoy a fun family night out at the ball park and socialize with other H&V members. Please RSVP to Kris at kris@handsandvoicesne.org or 203-0673 to order your tickets. We have tickets available at $7.00 each.
